PCI DSS Audit Compliance

unknown-1052419Jun 11 2014 — edited Jun 11 2014

Hi All,

11.2.0.3

We scan our db server for PCI DSS Audit Compliance, using NESSUS.

And it reported something like this: PCI DSS Compliance : Database Reachable from the Internet?

102.10.10.21 (tcp/1521)

A Oracle TNS listener is listening on this port.

Databases should not be reachable from Internet, according to PCI DSS.

Why is it reachable from internet? How can this be prevented?

Thanks all,
